Energy crisis: First space power station to ‘solve problems’ and make UK major exporter

Mark Garnier, Conservative MP and Chair of the advisory board of the SEI said that this project is the answer to the UK’s “energy problems”, with a huge export potential too.

He told Express.co.uk: “What we are proposing in this is a significant amount of baseload energy that is available the whole time.

“The great thing about this is that it will be on the whole time, and it is renewable, so 24 hours a day providing significant baseload power.

“This makes it both much more reliable than other renewables like wind and ground-based solar and it takes up less land area than those renewables do.

“So, the good news is that this solves all of our energy problems.”
